I was so disgusted, though, because this man that attended our church gave her the slowwwww up and down and then gave her the up and down again. I mean, it was so obviously licentious my stomach turned. He didn't blink or turn away--he just reallllly enjoyed the view. I felt very bad for his wife who was sitting right next to him. I don't know how she could have missed that.

Yet, he would be the first one to complain if a woman wore a split skirt--even if the skirt was long. He commented to my husband one afternoon, "Why would a woman wear a split skirt unless she wants a man to look?" Now, the answer to that question is debatable, but IMO that is a perfect example of a man giving himself permission to act badly because the woman is "asking for it" in his estimation.

true, its not like God is going to give me allowance for lust because women want to show the money.
